Building scalable architectures

with Veeam and Cisco UCS C3000 storage servers:

Veeam Backup & Replication provides an architecture where different components can be scaled
out simply by adding additional components. To maximize backup and restore performance for the
entire system, the Veeam Proxy and Repository roles need to be balanced. Doing so allows Veeam to
provide availability for the data, ensuring the lowest recovery time and point objectives (RTPO™). A
performance-optimized architecture is key to reach that goal. This whitepaper will rely on the following
simplified model of a modern data center.

This whitepaper is intended for a technical audience that understands how Veeam® Backup & Replication™
works. Additional knowledge about Cisco® UCS® and Cisco Unified Fabric is useful but not required.
